About our bath repair in Seaton
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about rust by the waste and overflow and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Seaton: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally within a day, depending on the repair.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
When to call us in Seaton
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the entire UK
